School Law

I am very interested in the law sid of education, and as an administrator, there are many situations that having as much knowledge of the law as it pertains to education will be beneficial. I am simply fascinated listening to the descriptions of the cases that come through the courts regarding the school system. I think this is a very important area as you never know what individual, whether that be a student or parent or staff member, etc. that will want to voice their opinion (resistance) to a policy or situation that occurs in the building. It is important to stay on top of the everchanging world of school law, there is always something new that pops up that makes you shake your head and say to yourself "you mean to tell me they thought this (action) would be appropriate?" I am looking forward to keeping up with school law issues through the website Dr. Closen pointed us to, School Law Blog, just to stay current with what is happening in the way of education law.
